Is eating a couple hard boiled eggs every 8 hrs enough to keep my body from going into calorie saving mode and keep it in fat burning mode? Need to lose 10 lbs in 20 days. Will be exercising too

[Anonymous No.12606068]

Calorie saving mode doesn't exist, but if you haven't fasted for very long before I suspect you will be hungry anyway.

Just do keto. Eat an avocado per day rather than eggs. "Calorie starvation" just means autophagy, which is a good thing because it means your body is consuming itself.

Avocado has too much fat right? I’m 142 need to get to 132. Fucked up my foot from too many miles so now sadly have to lift to lose weight

That's about 450 calories every 24 hours so you'll lose weight. Just some rough estimate math says you should lose about 11 pounds if you stick with this but I could be totally wrong on that.

>>12606080
Avocado doesn't really have that much more fat than the eggs you'd be eating, but you can lose weight while eating fatty food still as long as you're eating at a deficit. But I think the eggs would be better for more protein so you don't end up losing a bit of muscle mass too.

Carbs cause your body to store fat, assuming you're not exceeding daily caloric intake. When you consume high fat foods, your body attenuates, and consumes fat as its primary fuel source. Then when you eat fats you'll burn more fat reserves. Wa la. Keto wa la

I don't think it's that simple. Nobody really gets fat from eating fruit. Keto works because it forces people to cut out junk food, which is usually made up mostly of refined carbs. Most people are drinking hundreds of calories of carbs through soda every day but that doesn't mean the carbs are inherently bad.

This.

"Starvation mode" is a total and complete lie. It makes zero sense anyway.

Calories in calories out numbnuts. Keto is for autists that unironically believe that eating a stick of butter every hour is a good idea.

You're better off having pictures to look back on that don't back you think, 'I used to look like that.'
It's a short step to 'I used to feel like that', 'I used to be happy', and finally 'I'm not happy anymore.'

Dieting for health reasons is always a good idea, but dieting for appearance reasons can be rough on you, both physically and mentally.

Why are you asking us whether you guess or not? You're the one doing the guessing. You didn't even tell us what you suspect you're guessing about.

The thing about carbs and storing fat is that carbs cause the strongest insulin response (granted, refined carbs top that due to how quickly they're absorbed) preventing fat from being adapted into energy after consumption. It's all about the numbers involved but in general keto causes you to feel more energetic while on a calorie deficit because the stored energy becomes more readily available.

The whole "cause your body to store fat" thing is a bad way to put it. What a strong insulin response is really doing is making stored energy less available for use to prefer new energy, or in other words you get you more hungry or lethargic for the same amount of energy the larger the proportion of carbohydrates, with some exceptions and funky behaviors at the very high and low ends. You won't actually be using any more or less energy or burning any more or less calories. It just gets harder to do more and eat less.

Really though dieting and stuff is all just a pain in the ass and intermittent fasting is easy as shit once you get used to it. As long as you have a stable and sufficient nutritional intake and your body id well-adjusted to your lifestyle you can pretty much eat whatever you want and not get fat if you're just eating as many calories as you need.

The more fat you eat the more fat you lose. Makes perfect sense. Eat up, fatty! Carbs make you fat because of the insulin. They provide no satiety. Americans don't eat enough bacon, eggs and cheese. They eat lots of pasta causing the insulin. Good luck
